IE8: parseInt('07') vs parseInt('08')

Question

Found out a strange thing in IE8:

parseInt('01')
//1
parseInt('02')
//2
parseInt('03')
//3
/*...*/
parseInt('07')
//7
parseInt('08')
//0 !!!
parseIntr('09')
//9 ok

Can someone clarify?

All right, using radix heps. Can someone post the answer so I could mark it as answer. — Michael Zelensky, Sep 26 '13 at 18:26
